"I didn't expect General Lu to fall to such a state after so many years.”
Chen Chao sighed softly, feeling a little lonely.
He was an old acquaintance of Lu Yu's family.
However, he was forced to serve Emperor Yuan Tai.
After sighing, Chen Chao did not waste any more time.
He circulated his Genuine Qi and began to sense the aura of the cell and Lu Yu's body.
I can't feel anything
Chen Chao thought that Emperor Yuan Tai was indeed worrying too much.
The King of Northern Yan, Lu Yu, had his bones crippled, so how could he cultivate again?
He turned to leave, but was suddenly attracted by two scratches on the wall.
One scratch was deeper, and the other was lighter.
Two scratches.
They were all slashed by sword qi!
Chen Chao took another look in disbelief.
That's right!
As an Inborn expert, he was definitely not mistaken!
However, when he looked at Lu Yu again, he could not detect any fluctuation of Genuine Qi.
The other party was completely an ordinary person.
"Could it be that this was left behind by a predecessor?"
Chen Chao flipped through the people imprisoned in the imperial prison in his mind.
However, he really did not know if the previous person had been imprisoned in this cell.
Although Chen Chao was still a little puzzled, it was the truth.
Since he had completed his mission, he did not stay any longer and left in a hurry.
Lu Yu stood up when he felt Chen Chao leave.
He looked at the sword qi scratches on the wall and his eyes flashed.
A hundred secrets and a slip up
"Chen Clan!"
Lu Yu wasn't sure if Chen Chao had noticed anything strange.
However, thinking that he had already blocked his own cultivation, so what if he felt it? At most, he would just lie that it was the work of the barbarian diplomatic mission.
They couldn't possibly suspect an ordinary person whose cultivation foundation had been destroyed.
With that thought in mind, Lu Yu continued to cultivate without any obstacles.
......
Chen Chao returned to the palace and found Emperor Yuan Tai.
At this moment, Emperor Yuan Tai was sitting in Yangxin Palace Hall, watching the dancers in silk dresses dance in front of him and listening to the beautiful music of the singers. He felt very happy.
When Chen Chao saw this scene, he frowned imperceptibly.
Emperor Yuan Tai had only ascended the throne for two short years.
He didn't do much.
He was good at eating, drinking, and playing.
Even the once loyal Lu family was attacked.
He was disgusted, but he still knelt down on one knee.
"Greetings, Your Majesty."
"How is the situation? Is there anything strange about the King of Beiyan in the imperial prison?”
Emperor Yuan Tai asked leisurely while holding a beauty and eating the grapes that she fed him.
"Your Majesty, there's nothing unusual in the imperial prison. I've checked Lu Yu repeatedly and found that he's indeed an ordinary person.”
Chen Chao said.
He struggled for a while on the way, thinking about his past with the Lu family. In the end, he did not say anything about the unconfirmed sword qi.
Hearing this, Emperor Yuan Tai's brows relaxed.
He just needed to make sure that Lu Yu was fine.
He was really afraid that General Lu, who had shocked his master with his great achievements, would cause trouble again. When he thought of the Third Prince who was against him, he was filled with worry.
However, although he was troubled, it did not affect his enjoyment of the beautiful women and the singing and dancing. After all, it was not easy for him to get to this seat. No matter what, he should enjoy it.
"Alright, you may leave."
Since Lu Yu's matter had been put aside, they would have to settle the marriage tomorrow.
The sooner he resolved it, the sooner his future fame would be determined.
Emperor Yuan Tai knew that someone would stop the marriage tomorrow, especially that damned Wen Cifu.
"I am the emperor. In the entire world, only I can say what I want. What right does a civil official have to refute me?”
Emperor Yuan Tai thought of the opposing officials and gritted his teeth. He was furious at them.
The beauty on him saw the Emperor's anger and hurriedly said gently,""Your Majesty, please calm down. Your Majesty is the ruler of the world. Those rotten scholars are just your dogs.”
"Beauty is right."
Hearing the words of the beautiful woman beside him, Emperor Yuan Tai became happy again. He was even more satisfied with the official who had bullied Wen Cifu.
......
The next day, in the Qilin Palace of Great Zhou.
Emperor Yuan Tai sat on the dragon throne and looked down at the civil and military officials. He said with a serious expression,""Zhen has already decided that the marriage alliance must proceed.”
"This subject's advice!"
"The Northern Barbarians have wild ambitions. They have been at war with our Great Zhou for many years and have deep grudges.”
"Our Great Zhou is a great country. How can we lower our stance and do such a thing that disgraces the country?”
"I hope Your Majesty will reconsider and cancel the marriage proposal!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Wen Cifu stood up and objected righteously.
"His Majesty has already decided on a marriage alliance. Why are you still opposing it? The world is big and only the emperor's orders cannot be carried out!”
At this moment, the official jumped out again and, as expected, mocked Wen Cifu.
"You, you, you!"
Wen Cifu opened his mouth wide in anger, wanting to curse at the other party.
But at this moment, Emperor Yuan Tai waved his hand and shouted.
"Impudent!"
"I've made up my mind. Don't say anything else. Once the candidates are decided, we can send them to the Northern Barbarians!”
After saying that, Emperor Yuan Tai flicked his sleeves and left.
Insulting the country?
The Great Zhou Emperor's decision was actually said to be an insult to the country?
This damned assistant!
If it wasn't for his loyalty to the Great Zhou, Emperor Yuan Tai would have pulled him out and torn him apart!
How preposterous!
"Your Majesty, we can't have a marriage alliance!"
"Please reconsider, Your Majesty!"
"We can't marry!"
Wen Cifu and the other colleagues in the court cried and advised, but Emperor Yuan Tai left without looking back.
"Going against His Majesty is like hitting an egg against a rock.”
The official who was opposing Wen Cifu laughed mockingly, his eyes full of pride.
"Traitor, this old man and you are irreconcilable!”
Wen Cifu stood up and cursed before leaving with his colleagues.
He couldn't just let this matter go. Even if he had to remonstrate, he had to persuade the Emperor to come back.
......
The resolution of the marriage alliance was quickly announced to the world. When the people of Great Zhou heard about this, the entire Great Zhou boiled again.
Compared to the imprisonment of the Northern Yan King, Lu Yu, this matter had caused a huge stir among the people!
Almost everyone in the Great Zhou had heard of this matter. Even in remote towns, there were rumors of the Great Zhou's marriage alliance.
This was naturally the credit of the 3,000 assassins of the Network.
Each of them hid in the streets and alleys. When they were idle, they were small stalls. When they moved, they were terrifying elite killers.
The news easily spread throughout the entire Great Zhou, but it was very powerful.
The scholars and scholars who were concerned about national affairs were filled with anger at this moment. They wished they could enter the palace and reason with the emperor.
In their eyes, the Great Zhou was extremely powerful and was more than a level stronger than the Northern Barbarians. There was no need to compromise through marriage. This was completely slapping their own Great Zhou in the face.
Whether it was the people of Great Zhou or the scholars, they were all very angry.
"How powerful is our Great Zhou's national strength? Why should we marry a barbarian? They're not worthy of our Great Zhou's princess!”
"Even if it's a marriage alliance, it's the barbarians who gave us the princess. Why should we give them a marriage alliance? This is completely unreasonable.”
"The emperor is muddle-headed. Our Great Zhou has defeated the barbarians many times over the years, but now we have to marry them.”
"If General Lu was still here, he would definitely beat them up and beg for mercy!”
"Friend, don't say that now.”
"I'm telling the truth. No, we have to express our gratitude.”
"Yes, we want to let His Majesty know our anger and ask His Majesty to retract his order.”
"Everyone, take up the banner and start writing. Let His Majesty see the meaning of our people!”
Finally, after the news of the marriage was spread, the scholars were the first to gather.
They decided to oppose this resolution and let the Emperor know their determination.
A large number of scholars gathered in the tea houses and poetry clubs in the capital.
Writing articles and discussing enthusiastically to express his passion.
This was exactly what Lu Yu wanted.
No matter what era or world it was in, Yu Lun's power was incomparably terrifying.
As long as Yu Lun was powerful enough, it was not impossible to overthrow a country.
Lu Yu chuckled.
"Emperor Yuan Tai, let me see how long you can use this little trick of yours.”
